Author's Notes~ For you, Sis. I love you & will miss you, have fun on your trip!
She is sitting in her office, working away at the pile of paperwork in front of her, and wondering to herself. Is he going to return today? If he does, she can be sure that he will come and find her soon. She signs another piece of paperwork; her signature is beginning to get sloppy as she's done it so many times.
"Hey, why are you here today? Isn't this your day off?" He walks in, running one hand through his thick, messy hair. She looks up into his face and sees his smile and his shining green eyes, and she can't help but smile back at him.
"Well I hadn't anything else to be doing, so I was catching up on some paperwork that Major Lorne had asked me to do—"She is cut off as he rounds the side of the desk and takes the pen and paper from her hand, laying them on one corner of the desk and takes her hand, standing her up from her seat and wrapping her in a hug.
They kiss passionately for a moment and she melts into him, loving the feeling of her body pressed against his. She takes a second to thank the Ancients that he had closed and locked the office doors and she had left the curtains pulled shut.
He kisses her a moment longer, not willing to let her go. He has missed her so much, he has missed having her by his side, hearing her loving words in his ear with that accent that he loves so much, and he has missed being able to just watch her move, to look at her body and enjoy her graceful curves, to look into her beautiful, smoky blue eyes and see the love and warmth always there, and to see the shine of her red hair as she turns her head and it wisps lightly around her face.
"I'm so glad you're back, Shep." He smiles as he hears her say his name, still as adorable as the first time she said it to him.
"I'm glad to be back. No, I'm glad to be with you," He corrects himself as he realizes that he would be happy to be with her no matter where they were. His arms are around her waist already, so he lifts her up to sit on the desk and kisses her again, this time her hands make their way to his messy dark hair, weaving through it as they kiss.
Before long, the pen and paperwork from the desk are scattered on the floor with a thud. Just a bit later, a very satisfied Shep is relaxing, his lover beside him, her body perfectly fitted against his, and she strokes his bare chest with one hand as his free hand strokes her bare back, giving her chills of pleasure. She looks up into his face and he thinks to himself, he is the luckiest man on Atlantis to have a lover like her.
